If you are considering Karate Training for the first time, you will be pleased to know that a Free Trial Lesson is available for you and other newcomers free of charge, and at no obligation.

Free Trial Lessons are beneficial for allowing students to see & experience 'firsthand' what karate training is, and how much it can benefit you.

Simply Book in advance and show up at the class of your choice, and a Free Trial is yours. While newcomers are welcome to show up at a class and venue, we recommend that you do book either by phone or online on our website first. This way, we can provide you with the very best welcome and personal service.

WHAT SHOULD NEWCOMERS EXPECT?

"We value our newcomers. We will greet you with a warm welcome."

Before class, you will personally get to meet the Instructor, who will explain the workings of the class and who will then casually introduce you to the other club members and encourage you to socialize.

We will then provide you with some AGKK reading literature, about our Club and Goju Kai Karate in general. Before class, you will be asked to fill out an attendance sheet also. The mood before class is relaxed and casual.

WHAT TO WEAR? ATTIRE

We recommend that for your first visit to Australian Goju Kai Karate, that you wear loose, casual, and comfortable clothing. This could be similar to what you would normally wear to a fitness club or a gym.

No jewelry should be worn, such as watches and chains etc. Fingers and toenails should be well manicured. This avoids scratches and injury to yourself and others while training.

Conversely, Adults may purchase their Karate Gi immediately, if they desire.

Upon the commencement of class, you will be 'formally' introduced to the rest of the students and given a special welcome. The class will then initiate its traditional bow-in ceremony, before relaxing the class into meditation.

As the class continues, we will take you through a host of warm up exercises, basics techniques consisting: blocks, punches & kicks, before practicing traditional Japanese body movements or Karate Kata.

AFTER CLASS

The instructor will meet with you after class and will discuss immediate feedback with you on how you felt about the session. If you like, you can arrange further lessons, or you can leave your contact details with us to allow yourself time to think about continuing lessons. Later, we will give you a brief courtesy call to discuss any further interest.

FINALLY, "IMPORTANT"

Be sure to remember to remove your shoes and bow before you enter and leave the Dojo. It will feel somewhat strange at first, but by doing so, and at that very moment, you will feel the sensation, the spirit, and the excitement of what is means to train in Traditional Japanese Karate.
